A Letter from schwab.

CHICAGO, November 16.-The Arbeiter
Zeitatng, this evening, publishes letter
from Michael Schwab, written in the
County Jail the day before the execu-
ton of the Anarchists. The letter is
printed under the head of August
spies as man." but is devoted to
proving that while Spies and Lingg had
different ideas, the former, neVerthe-
less, had high opinion of the bomb
maker. The letter further says that
all Anarchists agree that Lingg was an
extraordinary man.
John Bachler, president of the
Wadeheim Cemetery Association
speaking, this afternoon, of the proba-
bilIty that the dead Anarchists would
be permanently inferred at Waldeheim
said: lone thing is certain, the asso-
citation will never again allow such
speeches or such scenes as took place
last Sunday. If any monument to the
five men shall be erected, the plans will
first have to be submitted to the asso
citation. No reasonable inscriptions
or designs would be permitted on it."

That PriHceIy Throat

VIENNA, November 16.-Dr. Schroet-
ter writes to the papers to assure the
public that the German Crown Princes
physicians have decided upon the pre-
else plan for meeting all contingencies
that may arise in the Princes
case, both in the immediate future and
later on. He says he hopes
shortly to be allowed to report atlength
on his journey to San Reno. 1t is
stated that the Emperor of BraZil de-
sires to impart to the Crown Prince
famous Brazilian remedy for cancer.
The Prince has been greatly re
lieYed by the bursting of the
tumor. Some of the matter dis
charged has been sent TO DR.. Vir-
chow for examination. Bulletins re-
garding the Princes condition will now
be issue1 weekly.
The Neue FTeie PreSse learns that
while staying at Baden in 1872, the
Crown Prince suffered for five months
from serious throat malady and that
his voice was weak until 1874.

LETTER FROM SCHWAB.
Quite Sensational.

CHICAGO, November 16.-A No,cS spe-
cial from Joliet says: Sensational de-
velopments continued to- day in the
suit of the California Insurance Com
pany against Lambert & Bishop, the
wire fence company, for the recovery of
insurance money paid the latter firm on
the loss of their wire factory by fire
Ex-Superintendent Whyte, of the
wire company, was under cross
examination most of the day. He
described, infinitely, the machine
by which he fired the building
and swore that the president OF the
company supervised its construction.
The object was, he said, to get rid of the
old mill and build new one, the plans
of which he drafted before the fire.
Several witnesses corroborated certain
details of Whyte's testimony. At
tempts were made by the defense to
show that Whyte was in the employ of
the insurance company to make the ex-
pose, in order that the company might
get back the money paid on the loss.
They also moved for a warrant for
Whyte's arrest as self-contessed Grim
inal. The trial is very sensational.

Tho Baseballers, Reforms.

NEW YORK, November 16.-The an
nual meeting of the Baseball League
began in this city to day. This evening.
President Young said: The conven-
ton has been engaged, entirely, on the
work of a reconstruction of the consti-
tuition, and that the brotherhood matter
would not be discussed until tomorrow.
The first change adopted in the consti-
tuition was the striking out of the
words, with any other league club, s"
in the rule forbidding Sunday playing.
Secretary Young was reelected. Play
ing rule 43 was amended so as to read
two players whose names shall be
printed on the score card as extra
players may be substituted at the end of
any completed inning by their club but
the retired players shall not thereafter
participate in the game, III addition
thereto, substitute may be allowed at
any time in the place of player dis
abled in a game by injury or illness
of the nature and extent of which the
umpire shall be the sole judge" This
section is subject to the approval
of the American Association. Rule
Al, relating to forfeited games,
was also amended (subject to
approval by the younger associations, to
give the club entitled to the forfeited
game the privilege of refusing it. Para
graph two, of section Al. referring to
umpires' salaries, was amended by sub
shutting a rule that they be paid IN &C
cordance with the contract between
them and the secretary of the league,
subject to the approval of the directors.
Section 56 was amended so as to permit
of any championship games, postponed
on account of rain, tied or drawn, to be
played off on the ground of either club
by consent.
The application of Al. Nichols, who
has been on the black list for several
years for reinstatement, was refused.
The changes in the rules at Pittsburg
were adopted.
1t is said here, this evening, that a
capitalist told President Ward, to-day,
that in case the league refused to rec
ognize the brotherhood, he and num-
Der of others would form syndicate to
back the brotherhood in the formal ton
of league in which only the brother
hood players will be recognized. Clubs,
it is said, would be placed in New York,
Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, De-
trOit and Providence.

Naval Court Martial.

WASHINGTON, November ia naval
court martial has been ordered to meet
at the New York navy yard, tomorrow,
for the trial of Lieut.. Emery H. Taunt,
on charges preferred by the Secretary
of the Navy The charges specifically
are, that he absented himself from the
Neipsic from October 18th to November
1st; that he was drunk, and that he re-
fused to return to his vessel when or
dered. Lieut.. Taunt is well known in
Washington, and his friends can &C
count for his actions only on the
ground of mental arrangement. They
say that the hardships suffered by him
on the Greely relief expedition and,
later, in the Congo explorations, have
undermined his constitution and unset
tied his reason.

the Radical clubs and Socialists was
held this evening. 1t was resolved to
hold a meeting in Hyde Park on Sun
day, and send a small deputation to

latter move is to secure a technical
case of assault against the police. AS
it is expected that the deputation will
be prevented from entering the square,
the whole question of the right of the
public to hold meetings on the square
will then be raised in court.

Commercial Union.

NEW YORK, November 16.-A snort
time ago, F. B. Thurber, chairman Of
the Commercial Union committee of
the Chamber of Commerce, wrote to
Edward Atkinson, the well-known
political economist, of Boston, for an
expression Of his views on the subject
of a Commercial Union with Canada,
Atkinson has replied in long letter, in
which he taxes the ground that not
only does he favor such union. but
also that he can discover no valid argu-
ment against 1t. The novel point of his
letter, however, is contained in para
graph referring to Nova Scotia, New
Brunswick and Cape Breton, the seat of
the fisheries dispute, and which the late
Governor Andrews, of Massachusetts,
is quoted as considering equal in pro-
ductiVe capacity to New York and Phiia-
delphia, exciu 3ive of their fisheries.
Atkinson says the population of the
600 people. These people have received
little benefit from the railroad project
IN the far west, on which Canada's
money has been chiefly expended, but
they must share the burden of the
debt. Mr.. Atkinson SAYS: Suppose the
United States should buy them at
price equal to their share of Canada as
debt, say $40,OO0,0 900 to $4,000, 600, it
would only cost five months of the
surplus revenue. Would it be a good
bargain for US, and would it not be
good bargain tor the provinces and the
Dominion 1t would enable the Do
minion to complete the emainder of
its railway system without mourning
further danger of loss to its credit.
